The cosy and contemporary design of Marmalade Pantry (Oasia Hotel Novena) makes it a good place for business lunch and dinner or catch-up with family and friends.
The menu is short and concise with something for everyone.
Starter
You can’t go wrong with Truffle Fries [S$16] which has a strong truffle fragrance thanks to the truffle oil it is fried in. Sprinkle on a little parmesan cheese and parsley for added pleasure.
I was worried that Spicy Garlic Prawns [S$25] will be too spicy for me but it’s only slightly spicy with a lovely aroma from the extra virgin olive oil.
Mains
Who can resist 250g of this grass-fed Argentina Ribeye Steak [S$45]. I am amazed at how tender the meat is even at medium-well doneness. It comes with fried smashed potatoes, grilled beans and mushroom cream sauce.
Pasta
I was craving for something cheesy and The Marmalade Mac & Cheese [S$25] hits all the right spots. The macaroni is baked with truffle cream and three types of cheese (blue cheese, mozzarella and parmesan). No wonder it has such a robust cheesy flavor.
Truffle Mushroom Risotto [S$26] is as every bit as indulgent as it sounds. The truffle paste and parmesan cheese makes this pasta so aromatic.
For something with a bit more heat, try Spicy Crabmeat [S$29] where pine nuts and parmesan cheese adds different flavors to the tomato-base pasta.
Desserts
Marmalade Pantry is well-known for their delicious cakes.
Berriolette Shortcake [S$12 per slice] is a simple cake of vanilla sponge cake with berriolette jam and fresh blueberries. This is everyone’s favorite.
The Marmalade Carrot Cake [S$12 per slice] comes with a delicious cream frosting. This cake has a very homely taste which I love.
Old Fashioned Chocolate Fudge Cake [S$12 per slice] is indeed very chocolatey and fudgy but it is also too sweet for my liking. Two mouthfuls is all you need to feel overwhelmed.
